Campos ran inside the house, where he barricaded himself for several minutes before surrendering, Canizales said.

The woman was taken to a hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries, he said.

Campos was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder, elder abuse, false imprisonment and felony vandalism, Canizales said.

He was booked into the Robert Presley Detention Center in Riverside, where he was being held in lieu of $1 million bail. Campos was due in court in Murrieta on Friday, according to sheriff's online jail records.
